Replicating an Arts & Crafts Furniture Trash Can / Hybrid Woodworking
In this video I make a copy of the Limberts Holland Dutch Arts and Crafts Furniture Waste Paper Box no. 255. It is found on page 40 of the Charles Limbert Co. Booklet no. 114.
If you have a chance, you should read Booklet no 114. It is an interesting look at ad copy from the early 20th century. https://archive.org/details/limbertsh...
